This will generate the database that you'll need to use in order to do this exercise (note that the database and script are only to be used for exercises published on this website, and may not be reused or distributed in any form without the prior written permission of Wise Owl).
Write an insert statement to add a new event with EventName called My DOB , with your date of birth as the Eventdate column and an appropriate entry for the EventDetails column:
Remember INSERT INTO tblEvent and VALUES.
Now we can turn this insert into a transaction - but first, write a delete command to remove any events with an Eventname like My DOB.
DELETE FROM tblEvent WHERE EventName LIKE 'My DOB'
Create a transaction which tests if an Eventname of My DOB exists already, adding it if it doesn't and giving a message if it does:
Results of running the script for the first and second times. Your EventID will be different!
Optionally save this as Adding dates of import.sql then close it down.
